[情報] Petit 正式退休
Emmanuel Petit 正式退休了...好歹他最後一支球隊是這裡...
Petit calls time on illustrious career
Friday, 21 January 2005
The man who scored the third and concluding goal in France's 1998 FIFA World
Cup final victory against Brazil, midfield player Emmanuel Petit, has been
forced to retire from football at the age of 34 after failing to overcome a
persistent knee injury.
'Never again'
Petit, who has been without a club since his departure from Chelsea FC last
summer, told French sports daily L'Equipe that he had decided to call time on
an illustrious career "shortly before Christmas". He said: "I knew straight
away it was over. I felt as though I'd never again be able to reach that phy-
sical level required to be a professional footballer."
EURO success
Petit's international debut at the age of 19 against Poland on 15 August 1990
was an inauspicious one as an uninspired game finished goalless. A decade later,
however, he was part of the Les Bleus side which followed up their World Cup
triumph on home soil with another at UEFA EURO 2000?. In all, he scored six
goals in 63 appearances for his country.
Club honours
Born in Normandy, Petit played for AS Monaco FC between 1985 and 1997, winning
the French Cup in 1991 and the championship in 1997. He was enticed to London
by his mentor at Monaco, Arsene Wenger, and soon helped Arsenal FC to a Premier
-ship and FA Cup double. His spells with FC Barcelona and Chelsea were less
successful, however.
Small regret
"Overall, I'm very proud of my career," concluded Petit. "My only regret is
having to put an end to my career because of an injury, like Marco van Basten
or Glenn Hoddle."

『 你們聽見有話說:「以眼還眼,以牙還牙。」只是我告訴你們,不要與惡人作對。
有人打你的右臉,連左臉也轉過來由他打;
有人想要告你,要拿你的裏衣,連外衣也由他拿去;
有人強逼你走一里路,你就同他走二里;
有求你的,就給他;
有向你借貸的,不可推辭。 {馬太福音 5.38~42} 』
